Pool Installation Process

Here's How Your Pool Gets Built

First, we meet at your property to discuss your vision, measure your space, and identify any potential challenges with utilities or drainage. We handle the permit applications and provide you with a detailed timeline and cost breakdown.

Once permits are approved, excavation begins. We mark all utilities, dig to precise specifications, and prepare the foundation. The plumbing and electrical rough-in happens next, followed by steel reinforcement and concrete or gunite application.

After the shell cures, we install your chosen finishes, decking, and any custom features like waterfalls or built-in seating. We fill the pool, balance the water chemistry, and walk you through the basic maintenance you’ll need to know. The entire process typically takes 6-8 weeks, weather permitting.

Your custom pool construction includes complete excavation, steel reinforcement, plumbing installation, electrical work, and concrete or gunite shell construction. We handle all permit applications and coordinate required inspections throughout the process.

Every project includes proper drainage around the pool area, equipment installation and startup, and basic maintenance training. We work with Little Plains’ specific soil conditions and drainage requirements to ensure your pool foundation remains stable for decades.

Custom inground pool costs in Little Plains typically range from $50,000 to $100,000+, depending on size, features, and site conditions. Basic rectangular pools with standard finishes start around $50,000, while custom shapes with premium features like waterfalls, spas, or elaborate decking can exceed $100,000. Factors that affect pricing include excavation difficulty, utility locations, chosen materials, and custom features. We provide detailed written estimates after evaluating your specific property and discussing your preferences, so you know exactly what to expect before any work begins.
Most custom pool projects take 6-8 weeks from excavation to completion, though this can vary based on weather, permit approval timing, and project complexity. The permit process typically takes 2-3 weeks before construction begins. Excavation and plumbing rough-in happen in the first week, followed by steel and concrete work. After the shell cures for about a week, we install finishes, decking, and equipment. Weather delays are the most common reason for extended timelines, particularly during Little Plains’ winter months when ground conditions can halt excavation work.
Yes, we handle all permit applications and coordinate required inspections throughout your pool construction project. Little Plains requires building permits for inground pools, and we’re familiar with local requirements for setbacks, drainage, and safety features. We submit all necessary paperwork, schedule inspections at appropriate construction phases, and ensure everything meets code before proceeding to the next step. This includes electrical inspections for pool lighting and equipment, plumbing inspections for circulation systems, and final inspections before you can use your completed pool.
Little Plains soil conditions vary but commonly include clay and mixed soil compositions that require specific excavation and drainage approaches. Clay soil can present challenges for proper drainage around the pool, which is why we install appropriate drainage systems during construction. Rocky areas may require additional excavation time and equipment. We evaluate soil conditions during the initial site visit and factor any special requirements into your project timeline and cost estimate. Proper soil preparation and drainage are critical for long-term pool stability, so we don’t skip these steps regardless of soil type.
Winter pool construction in Little Plains is limited by ground conditions and weather. We can typically work through mild winter periods, but frozen ground halts excavation work. The best construction window runs from late spring through fall when soil conditions are manageable and concrete can cure properly. If you’re planning a pool for next summer, fall and early winter are ideal times for design consultations and permit applications, positioning your project to begin as soon as spring conditions allow excavation to resume safely.
New pool maintenance involves regular water testing, chemical balancing, skimming debris, and cleaning filters. During your pool startup, we’ll show you how to test pH and chlorine levels, which should be checked 2-3 times weekly during swimming season. You’ll need to skim leaves and debris regularly and clean the pool filter monthly. Most Little Plains pool owners find maintenance takes about 30 minutes per week once they establish a routine. We provide basic maintenance training and can recommend local pool supply stores where you can get testing supplies and chemicals as needed.
